[Bit 1]

The obvious thing, Chaney...

The only thing I really can't stand about that is everybody thinks I'm related to Dick,

the old vice president.

But everybody says it.

It gets really fucking annoying after a while.

It's the most obvious thing you could say, but it's like at some point you have to say

something back to him.

So for me it's been, well, no, I'm not related, but my dad's a Dick, my sons are both Dicks,

most of the time I'm a dick.

[Bit 2]

Been trying to lose weight, reasonably.

Came to Austin for the weekend, and this is not

the right place for it.

So I've been trying to stick to my diet,

but I think it's going to be a net gain of about 15 pounds.
